GRADING SYSTEM

1. Only SIU grades of A, A-, B+, B, B-, C+, C, C-, D+, D, F and WF are included in the SIU GPA. Transfer work is not included in the SIU GPA. Please note if a course requires a minimum grade of C, a C- grade is not sufficient to meet this minimum requirement.

2. Repeat policy: Effective for courses taken Summer 2013 or later, only the last grade of the subsequently repeated course will count in the GPA. For more information, see page 66 of this handbook.

3. A WF represents an unofficial withdrawal and calculates as a failing grade in your GPA.

4. A W grade (other than WF) indicates authorized course withdrawal and is not counted in your GPA.

5. An incomplete (INC) is given with the instructor’s approval when a student with a passing grade is unable to complete the coursework in the time allotted because of extenuating circumstances. An INC must be changed to a completed grade within one semester following the term in which the course was taken, excluding summer term. Failure to complete the coursework within one semester will result in a grade of F. When completing a course with an INC grade, students should not re-register for that course. Check with Financial Aid for future implications.

6. A grade of AU will be given for courses audited; no credit will be generated. The decision to audit a course must be designated at the time of registration, or before the end of the second week of classes. If auditing students do not attend regularly, the instructor may determine that the student should not have a satisfactory (AU) audit grade. If the audited class is unsatisfactory, a grade of UAU will appear on the student’s transcript.

STUDENTS ACADEMIC STANDING

Once you have earned grades at SIU, an academic standing is created. Your academic standing is often referenced as a requirement for the following:

1. Good standing: Cumulative SIU GPA 2.0 or above. 2. Probation: Cumulative SIU GPA less than 2.0.3. Continuing probation: Cumulative SIU GPA less than 2.0, but each individual term has

been a 2.0 or above since being placed on probation.4. Suspension: While on probation, cumulative SIU GPA and term GPA of less than 2.0 and

more than six negative points.

For re-entry student information, contact the acting Assistant Dean (Rehn 113) by email at [email protected] or 618/453-2603.

SIU FINANCIAL AID RECIPIENTS

If transferring into the College of Business from another college on campus or another university, after SIU financial aid has been awarded, contact the Financial Aid Office to determine if the award amount may be recalculated.

Student classification requirement hoursStudent classifications (freshman, sophomore, etc.) are calculated by credit hours earned, not by the number of years in college or years at SIU.

Classification Hours required Senior 86 +Junior 56-85Sophomore 26-55Freshman 0-25

TRANSFER STUDENT INFORMATION

Transfer students must submit an official transcript before credit can be given for transfer work. Only coursework accepted by the university can be evaluated for transfer credit. All official transcripts will be processed through Articulations and Evaluations in the Registrar’s Office, or the Center for International Education for international students. University core curriculum equivalencies are determined by Articulations and Evaluations Office evaluators.

Coursework taken at the upper division (300- and 400-level) can be considered for upper-division business course equivalency if the coursework was taken at an AACSB-accredited institution. Business equivalency evaluations are initiated in the college with an advisor. Students should provide a syllabus for each course to be evaluated.

GPA REQUIREMENTS FOR GRADUATION

Grade point average requirements – university policy

1. Minimum SIU cumulative GPA for graduation = 2.0; minimum 2.0 major GPA; minimum 2.0 business GPA.

2. ENGL 101-3 or LING 101-3 (English Composition I) must be completed with a grade of C or better (a C- grade is not sufficient).

3. ENGL 102-3 or LING 102-3 (English Composition II) must be completed with a grade of C or better (a C- grade is not sufficient).

Additional grade point average requirements – college policy

1. Graduation from the College of Business requires achievement of a 2.0 GPA in all business-prefix (ACCT, BUS, ECON, FIN, MGMT and MKTG) courses taken at SIU.

2. In addition, students must earn a minimum grade of C (a C- grade is not sufficient) and a minimum 2.0 GPA in their major coursework (accounting, finance, management or marketing), to satisfy the requirements for their degrees.

3. ACCT 210, ECON 113, ECON 302I and MGMT 170 are not calculated into the business-prefix grade point average.

4. ACCT 208 and ACCT 210 are not calculated in the major GPA for accounting majors.

5. FIN 200, FIN 270, FIN 310 and FIN 323 are not calculated in the major GPA for finance majors.

CALCULATING YOUR COLLEGE OF BUSINESS AND MAJOR GPA

There are several types of GPAs, including cumulative and SIU. It is important to realize the difference in each and when they are used.

Overall GPA: This includes all courses taken at SIU and any other institution. This is primarily used to determine Latin honors at graduation (cum laude, etc.).

Current-term GPA: Only includes those SIU course grades from the indicated semester.

SIU (institution) GPA: Only includes course grades at SIU. This GPA is used to determine academic standing.

Business GPA/Major GPA: The business GPA and/or major GPA are expressed as positive (+) or negative (-) points. This is a common system used to indicate the number of positive or negative grade points above or below a 2.0/C grade average. Below are examples for three-credit-hour courses:

Grade+/- points the grade is worth Multiply

Credit hours for the class Equals

GPA points for the class

A 2 x 3 = 6

A- 1.667 x 3 = 5.001

B+ 1.333 x 3 = 3.999

B 1 x 3 = 3

B- 0.667 x 3 = 2.001

C+ 0.333 x 3 = 0.999

C 0 x 3 = 0

C- -0.333 x 3 = -0.999

D+ -0.667 x 3 = -2.001

D -1 x 3 = -3

F -2 x 3 = -6

Effective Summer 2013:If you must repeat a class, the GPA points are only counted for the last time the class is taken (both attempts must be at the same institution). Look at ECON 240 (three-credit-hour class) as an example:

ECON 240 is taken and a grade of F (−6) is earned; student repeats the course and earns a grade of B (+3). Only +3 GPA points are calculated for ECON 240.

Note: For courses that require a grade of C or higher, a C- grade will not satisfy this requirement.

Important: These points are added together for all business-prefix (ACCT, BUS, ECON, FIN, MGMT and MKTG) courses to calculate your College of Business GPA. Your business GPA and your major GPA must add up to zero (0) or higher for you to graduate.

Special appointmentsIf you would like an in-person appointment but are unable to come in during regular business hours, please contact the chief academic advisor at 618/453-7496 or [email protected].

Telephone and emailIdeally, advisement is conducted in person; however, email or phone appointments are available.

Selection of semester courses

1. Consult the University Core Curriculum and major requirement sheets in this handbook to determine what courses are required for your degree. You can also view your degree audit in Degree Works. A link to Degree Works is available through SalukiNet

2. Check the Student Required Course Curriculum Posting Sheet on page 45 and update it with all of your completed courses, and review it to determine which courses you still need to take.

3. Develop a tentative list of classes (including desired sections) and a time schedule prior to seeing your advisor. Employed students should include scheduling time to work when developing course schedules.

Course registration processIt is recommended that you register for courses as soon as possible, based on the registration schedule, and ideally no later than the end of the prior semester to the term in which you are registering.

1. Prior to registering, access SalukiNet for information on registration eligibility. Register for classes using SalukiNet.

2. If, at the time of the advisement/registration appointment, it is discovered that you have a hold on your registration from admissions, records, the bursar, Morris Library, parking, housing, health service or some other area, you will need to go to that office to resolve the problem before you can complete registration. This includes prepayment of tuition.

3. If a course you would like to register for is closed, a course restriction override permit may be obtained and signed by the appropriate instructor and department chair if there is no waitlist available for the course. Course restriction override permit information can be obtained from the reception desk at Rehn 121. Signed forms must be returned to Rehn 121 for overrides to be placed in the system. Forms should be processed in one to two business days. Once the override is in place, you should be able to add the course via Salukinet.

4. After the registration process is complete, be sure to check your schedule for accuracy.

Registration changesIf you need to change your schedule, it is called a registration change. Changes may be processed at Rehn 121 using a registration form or through Salukinet as available. Before seeing your advisor or processing the change, check for time conflicts and prerequisite compliance in the schedule.

Emergency absences from classIf a class must be missed due to illness, accident, death in the family or other verifiable emergency, contact Withdraws and Petitions at 618/453-7041 to have faculty notified. This notification does not constitute an excused absence. You will then need to contact faculty concerning missed work.

Withdrawal from school or reduction of hours and financial aid If withdrawing from the university (dropping to zero credit hours), contact Withdraws and Petitions, [email protected], Room 251 in the Student Services Building, 618/453-7041. If you receive financial aid and choose to withdraw from school or reduce your credit load, check with the Financial Aid Office at [email protected], 618/453-4334 for implications to current and future financial aid. If you are required to maintain full-time enrollment for any other reason, contact the appropriate office for authorization (i.e. International Students and Scholars, SIU Athletics, University Housing, etc.).

Online course offerings through SIU Extended Campus

1. Sixteen-week online semester-based courses offered through SIU Extended Campus: These courses follow the same calendar as on-campus courses. Students are responsible for observing drop deadlines. No late adds may be made after the 12th week of the semester. Drop deadlines follow the same timelines as those for on-campus section.

2. All online business courses are identified by a 940 section.

3. Students enrolled in a residential degree program at SIU are not allowed to take courses in the online accounting and the online business and administration programs during fall or spring semesters, except in the specific case in which a student’s graduation would be delayed because of a university-imposed time conflict between two required courses and when no other residential course option is available to fulfill that requirement. In these cases, chief advisor review and associate dean approval is required for all exceptions. Program courses are designated by a business course prefix and a 940 section number.

There are many terms associated with course registration, some of which are unique to SIU. Here is a quick list of the most common terms you may hear or see when registering for courses. If you have other questions, please do not hesitate to contact the Undergrad Advisement Office.

Online registration instructions are available at registrar.siu.edu/pdf/registration.pdf.

CRN (course registration number): The five-digit course registration number assigned to a class section. This is a quick course reference number. If you have a course’s CRN, you can type that into SalukiNet and pull up that particular course section without searching through the rest of the sections of that course.

Variable (credit) hours: Some courses can be taken for a variable number of semester credit hours, generally 1-6 hours. Check with your advisor to make sure that you have the correct number to enter.

Grade mode: Enter the appropriate code if you are taking a class for anything other than regular credit (e.g., auditing).

Course restriction override permit: Some courses will be “closed” for registration or will have a “prerequisite” restriction other than class/college/major. These restrictions will prevent you from registering for these courses. Only under special circumstances can instructors and/or department chairs provide permission for you to register for the class. Permission is given on a hard copy of a course restriction override permit, which is processed by your advisor.

Prerequisites: Some courses have prerequisite requirements that must be completed prior to enrollment. For example, ACCT 220 must be taken before ACCT 230.

(Course) section search: If the section you request is not available, you will be offered a list of alternative sections.

Add/drop courses: After you have registered, you may access SalukiNet to make permissible changes to your schedule. Before dropping courses, check to be sure you will not be jeopardizing your financial aid eligibility or some other condition that requires you to carry a certain course load for the term (e.g., full-time course load for your parent’s health insurance). Dropped courses may be processed through SalukiNet as the system permits.

COURSE REGISTRATION ON SALUKINET

22 23

You may add courses up to the end of the first week of class using SalukiNet. After that, any course additions must be done via the undergrad advisement and registrar’s offices.

For most classes, which are 16 weeks in length, the deadline to drop a course is at the end of the 10th week. Check the registration calendar at registrar.siu.edu/calendars/registration.php for updated information.

Please note that to access the add/drop feature of SalukiNet you must not have a registration hold on your account.

Course registrations and schedule accuracy are solely your responsibility. Advisors cannot access your schedule to add/drop classes for you. Please double-check that your schedule is correct whenever you make changes. Unfortunately, omissions and oversight errors are not taken into account for refunds or any other special circumstances.

This can be found on the Business Placement Center’s website under the Student section.

HandshakeThe College of Business uses a career portal called Handshake that can be found on students’ SalukiNet account. This is a top resource for searching for internship and career opportunities.

Internships Gaining hands-on, practical experience in the work world as a supplement and complement to gaining formal education can better prepare you for a business career. In addition, many employers view experience as an advantage when hiring new employees. These are two of the reasons why the College of Business strongly advises its students to gain practical experience via involvement in student clubs, community volunteer activities and/or externships, internships and part-time jobs.

COLLEGE OF BUSINESS STUDENT SERVICESAfter talking with your advisor on the timing of participating in an internship experience, visit the Business Placement Center to complete your intern form. By completing your intent to intern form, you are alerting us of your goal to complete an internship and we can begin assisting you in your search.

During the internship experience, you will have the chance to expand your knowledge about your chosen industry, refine career aspirations and expand your professional network. Students become more independent and self-confident while learning how to balance work. Also, research has shown that students are 62 percent more likely to have a job at graduation and to be paid on average $10,000 more than students who do not complete an internship.

Please note: The center has a cooperative agreement with University Career Services (UCS) in in the Student Services Building to share and disseminate information on campuswide career workshops, career fairs, job postings and interviews, including sponsorship/payment of the UCS registration fee. Additional services offered by UCS may be located online at careerservices.siu.edu.

STUDY ABROAD

Just as business people need to know how to read a spreadsheet, communicate effectively and work with others, they are increasingly called upon to be able to work with other cultures. More than ever, the market is global – and individuals need to be able to work effectively in a number of societies. There are many ways to achieve this ability, but perhaps the most effective is by studying abroad.

SIU offers business students a variety of opportunities to study abroad, including individual exchange programs and faculty-led experiences. These include direct exchanges and opportunities available through the Center for International Education. Please visit cie.siu.edu for further information on study-abroad opportunities offered through SIU.

The College of Business offers a faculty-led study abroad program. This one-month summer experience allows students to travel to Grenoble, France, to study at the world-renowned Grenoble Ecole de Management. Students may take courses in the areas of international strategy/international marketing, entrepreneurship, innovation and/or design. Visit business.siu.edu/services/study-abroad.html for more information.

SIU COLLEGE OF BUSINESSUNDERGRADUATE ACADEMIC GRIEVANCE POLICY

Undergraduate students in the College of Business shall have the right to appeal for redress of grievances through established channels under the conditions stated below. Access to these channels is restricted to complaints by students alleging that some member of the College of Business community has caused the student to suffer some specific harm related to the award of a course grade.

Grievances that have been brought to a hearing under another campus grievance procedure shall not be brought to a hearing under this procedure.1

GRIEVANCE OF A COURSE GRADE2

With respect to students’ complaints alleging capricious grading, the following guidelines shall apply.

Instructors are expected to evaluate student work according to sound academic standards. Equitable requirements should be required of all students in a class, and grades should be assigned without departing substantially from announced procedures. It is the instructor’s prerogative to assign grades in accordance with his/her academic/professional judgment, and the student assumes the burden of proof in the appeals process. Grounds for appeal include: (1) the application of non-academic criteria in the grading process, as listed in the university’s nondiscrimination and affirmative action statements regarding race, color, sex, national origin, religion, age, sexual orientation, marital status or handicap; (2) the assignment of a course grade by criteria not directly reflective of performance relative to course requirements; and (3) the assignment of a course grade by standards different from those that were applied by the instructor to other students in the course.

1 Cases involving academic dishonesty will be handled according to the Student Conduct Code. Matters involving graduate students will be handled according to the academic grievances procedures in the Graduate Catalog. Separate grievance procedures exist for cases covered by the university policy on sexual harassment, the policy accommodating religious observances of students, the policy on release of student information and access to student records at Southern Illinois University, the policy on immunization of enrolled students, the policy on the determination of residency status, and the university’s response to comply with Americans with Disability Act. These procedures are published in the Undergraduate Catalog. Undergraduate students employed as student workers are covered by a student worker grievance procedure, which is administered by the Financial Aid Office.

2 Students may not challenge the final grade on a course. However, students may challenge grades given on components of the course and how those components are combined to make up the final course grade. Examples of graded course components include (but are not limited to) exams, projects, labs, cases, homework, class participation, etc. The final grade may change depending on changes to grades to course components.

54 55

ACADEMIC GRIEVANCE PROCEDURE

The grievance procedure for a given term must begin no later than 15 business days from the last day of final exams of that term. An undergraduate student seeking redress through grievance (appellant) must first attempt to resolve the matter informally by contacting the party against whom redress is sought (respondent). If the dispute is not resolved at this stage, the student should contact the respondent’s unit chair/director, who will attempt to resolve the dispute. It is the student’s responsibility to document the steps taken and the date(s) those steps were taken to resolve the dispute.

In the event that the dispute is not resolved informally, a student may ask for, and receive, a hearing at the unit level. If the incident occurs during the spring semester and the student will not be in residence for the summer semester, she/he may request an extension of the deadline to the following fall semester by petitioning the unit chair/director in writing. Such a request shall normally be granted as long as the petition is received on or before the 10th day of classes of the following term; however, the final decision is that of the unit chair/director.

The request for a hearing must state the following:1. Name of the grievant.2. Program in which the grievant is enrolled.3. Name and title of the person(s) against whom the grievance is being filed.4. Current address, phone number and email address of the grievant.5. Statement of the grievance, including descriptions of the incident(s) involved, dates(s) of

occurrence and what remedy is being sought, as well as any supporting documents.

UNIT ACTION ON GRIEVANCE

Upon receiving a written request for a hearing regarding an academic grievance, the unit chair/director shall send the respondent a copy of the grievance, who will provide the unit chair/director with a written response within 15 business days. The unit chair/director shall then consider the grievance and response, or forward the grievance and response to the unit’s grievance committee for consideration. If the matter will be heard by a grievance committee, the unit chair/director shall notify the parties of the identity of the individuals who have been selected to serve on the grievance committee.3 The participation of any

3 Unit Undergraduate Student Grievance Committee: A unit undergraduate student grievance committee will be advisory to the unit chair/director and will submit its findings and recommendations to the chair/director. The committee shall consist of three members. The unit/chair may designate an existing department committee to serve in such capacity (subject to the qualifications listed herein), or may appoint an ad-hoc undergraduate student grievance committee. The members of the committee shall be appointed whenever possible from the unit in the college in which the grievance arose. Of those members, two shall be appointed from the full-time faculty, and one shall be appointed from the undergraduate student body in good academic standing.

committee member may be challenged for cause. If the unit chair/director determines that the challenge is valid, she/he shall name a substitute. The unit chair/director or committee chair shall request of both parties copies of any documents and a list of witnesses they wish to introduce. These must be submitted within 15 days of receipt of the request. The unit chair/director or committee chair shall convene a hearing within 15 days of receipt of the substantiating documents. These documents shall be available to both parties at least five days prior to the hearing.

The hearing shall be conducted by the unit chair/director or by the committee according to the hearing procedures that are outlined in the appendix. In the absence of compelling circumstances, the unit chair/director shall render a decision within 15 days, or the grievance committee shall make its recommendation on the grievance to the unit chair/director within 15 days after the conclusion of the hearing.

Upon receipt of the committee’s recommendation, the unit chair/director shall decide to accept or reject the committee’s recommendation and render a decision on the grievance within 15 days. The decision and the reasons for it shall be submitted in writing to the parties, to the committee members (if any) and to the dean of the College of Business (or his/her representative) at the same time.

The unit chair/director shall advise the parties of their right to appeal to the dean of the College of Business. Hearings of appeals will not be automatically granted. Dissatisfaction with the decision shall not be sufficient grounds for appeal. The appellant must demonstrate that the decision at the unit level was in error.

FILING AN APPEAL

If an undergraduate student wishes to appeal a decision of the unit, she/he must file a written appeal with the dean of the College of Business within 20 days of receipt of the lower decision. The appeal must state the following:1. Name of the appellant.2. Program in which the appellant is enrolled.3. Name and title of the person(s) against whom the original grievance was filed.4. Current address, phone number and email address of the appellant.5. Copies of the original statement of grievance, the response by the person against whom

it was filed and supporting documents, as well as a statement of what remedy is being sought.

56 57

Upon receiving a written appeal, the dean4 shall determine whether or not the appeal has merit (sufficient grounds) and should move forward. If so, the dean will, at the same time, determine whether the hearing agent will be administrative or a committee. If it is determined that the appeal does not have merit, the dean will inform both parties in writing of the reason(s) for denial within 15 days.

PROCEDURES FOR APPEAL HEARING IN THE COLLEGE OF BUSINESS

The dean of the College of Business is responsible for making the final decision in the appeal of a grievance decision by the unit chair/director. If the appeal will be heard by a committee, the dean will direct the Undergraduate Program Committee (UPC) to select a hearing committee to hear the case and submit a recommendation to the dean.

This is done according to the following procedures:a. The Undergraduate Program Committee selects a hearing committee composed of at least

three faculty members, along with one undergraduate student. One of the faculty members must be outside of the student’s department. A member of the college advising staff may also be on the hearing committee in place of one of the faculty members. While members of this committee will usually be members of the UPC, it may be necessary, in some instances, to select members from outside the committee. The hearing committee shall meet and select a chair from the faculty membership.

b. All parties have the right to present evidence on their behalf. Any new evidence introduced in the appeals process must be on file with the chair of the UPC one week prior to the student’s scheduled hearing. All new materials will be distributed to both parties involved in the appeals process at least five business days prior to the hearing.

c. All parties have the right to bring witnesses. The student may bring an advisor who will not be permitted to address the committee directly on appeals from the chairs. The student may have advice and assistance in preparing and presenting the appeal.

d. The hearing committee meets within 15 days of the receipt of the student’s appeal, and the student is sent notification of the time and place of the hearing by the committee chair no later than five days prior to the hearing.

e. The hearing committee arrives at a decision on the basis of a simple majority. The recommendation of the committee is relayed in writing by the committee chair to the dean of the College of Business within 15 days of the conclusion of the hearing.

f. The hearing committee, as described above, is not expected to meet during the first two weeks nor the last two weeks of a semester, nor will it usually meet during vacation periods or summer. During these times, an administrative hearing officer chosen by the dean may substitute for the committee, or the dean may choose to hear the case.

g. The dean of the College of Business makes the final decision within the College of Business and notifies the student, in writing, of the decision within 15 days of the receipt of the committee’s recommendation.

4 The undergraduate student grievance committee shall meet and elect its chair from among the faculty membership. Any faculty member involved in the dispute shall not be appointed to the grievance committee.

APPEAL OF THE DECISION BY THE DEAN OF THE COLLEGE OF BUSINESS

If the individual is not satisfied with the decision of the dean of the College of Business (or his/her representative), a written argument stating the reasons for such dissatisfaction may be submitted to the vice chancellor for academic affairs and provost, Southern Illinois University Carbondale, within 15 days after the date that delivery of the decision was tendered by the U.S. Postal Service to the individual. Such written argument shall be attached to the dean’s decision and remain therewith throughout the remainder of the process.

APPENDIX (UNDERGRADUATE STUDENT GRIEVANCE POLICY)

UNIT HEARING PROCEDURES1. The principal parties to the grievance shall have the right to be accompanied by an

advisor of their choice. The advisers may speak on behalf of their clients only with the approval of the unit chair/director, the dean of the College of Business or the grievance committee.

2. All hearings shall be open unless either of the parties requests that the hearings be closed. If the hearing is closed, only the parties, their advisers, and either the unit chair/director or the dean or the grievance committee shall be present during the taking of evidence. Witnesses for either party shall be present only while giving testimony if the hearing is closed.

3. All hearings shall be audio recorded. The recording will be deposited in the office of the unit chair/director at the conclusion of the hearing. These recordings shall be stored for five years, after which time they will be destroyed.

4. Each party may call witnesses to present evidence. Each party shall have the right to examine any witness called by the opposing party. If a witness is unable to appear, the committee may allow depositions. If the presence of a witness is required to ensure fairness to all parties and the witness is physically unable to attend, the hearing will not be postponed. Rather, while testimony of such witnesses by audio recording, by telephone conference, by letter, by facsimile, by email or by videoconferencing is considered less viable, it may be allowed.

5. The grievance committee will arrive at a decision based on a simple majority vote. However, the unit chair/director or the dean may reject the recommendation by the committee. The unit chair/director or dean will decide all matters, both procedural and substantive.

6. Each party may make an opening and a closing statement.7. Decisions by the unit chair/director or the grievance committee will be based on the

preponderance of the evidence.

NOTE: The undergraduate student grievance policy presented in this document was adapted for use in the College of Business, Southern Illinois University Carbondale, from the Graduate Student Academic Grievance Policy.
